They shot like shit, played too much small ball and didn’t close it out.

Rust? Game plan? Refs are mad at them now?

they created an NBA record 20 turnovers in the first half.

Pacers just did what they do.

Shot much better…JDub has the yips.

Played bigger most of the game.

Closed it out.

Wiggins off the bench was huge.

I got 2 parlays that I bet early in the 3rd quarter. I normally do like >$1 bets

 

[iowajerms]

Doesn't look like Salami will get it, but I have a shot to win the $29 payout one if Jalen Williams scores.

 

[iowajerms]

Almost got it. I at least made a profit.

Carlisle is a great coach. Pacers are a great team. Presti is Gawd.

Congrats to Thunder fans.

Now if I were y'all I'd be nervous about ESPN today talking about the Dynasty. Doesn't matter the sport, when looking at rosters + cap + age and claiming "upcoming dynasty" after the first win...NEVER happens that way. NBA, NFL, MLB all have shown that to be the case. Most of the dynasties we have seen of recent years started out winning one, being an underdog the next season and winning another, and THEN the talk of dynasties start. RIP OKC.

Media gonna media.

They’re setup to have success next year, but after seeing every game of these playoffs they have a long way to go before I’m convinced they’re ‘dynasty’ bound.

they're set up nicely, and should continue to improve. As with any sport, but especially with every NBA playoffs and what hurts chances for dynasty's is injuries. Always multiple high level players that are out each year.

We’ll get Topic back next year and whoever else they pick up in the draft. Depth shouldn’t be an issue, until it is (best players getting injured).

My interest is who gets voted off Thunder Island this off-season.
